As a western classical musician, I definitely see why Debussy and Ravel were so inspired by this music. Such mesmerizing rhythms and sonorities. Thank you for sharing this!

Your insights are wonderful! I am not a musician but a lover of Debussey and did not know about the connection. I also think Debussey was avant-garde. I love this Sultan selection. Had a cassette I took everywhere with me when I was in my 20's. Javanese music on one side, Eric Satie on the other!
i don't know where you got that data but gendhing raja manggala or prabu mataram always played whenever sultan comes to a ceremony or as opening song in uyon uyon. so in my opinion it is definetely played more than 10 times
@@GangsaEnthusiast I agree with you,Gending Raja Manggala also accompanies Sri Sultan when receiving royal guests.And of course the sri Sultan received royal guests more than ten times

There's a movement in In A Nutshell Suite by Percy Grainger that's one of the best representations of gamelan in classical music I've heard

I'm here for listening ladrang galagotang,slendro nem 🙏
this music used gamelan K.K Siratmadu and K.K Madukentir............ :D
I always considered Gamelan very special music. I wish there was an English translation to their lyrics.
there's a gamelan with english translation, check this link ruclips.net/video/RhKzPX7OxA8/видео.html , and there is javanese opera too
Kraton Jogja has its own yt channel now. We can watch their musical performance with english subtitle.
Even as a javanese myself, i can't capture what they are saying
@@dentangaji6161 the mystery is part of the magic of this music.
@@dentangaji6161 I think because it's a song with high Javanese/krama inggil? Idk
Or mybe the song uses old Javanese/Kawi/Bhasa Jawi?
Played this when i missed home
I think its video...but its ok...very love with rajamanggala women singer and miss with yogyakarta my bornt city
I really love this Javanese music :)
Thank you my friend.
